In the evening, Su Wan thought carefully about how to price Shaqima appropriately. Taking into account the money spent on buying raw materials, the flour she bought was enough to make a lot of Shaqima.
Is it more profitable to buy by the pound or sell by the portion?
The final conclusion is that it is sold by portions. A portion of mung bean cake in Liufangzhai costs fifteen dollars. It is a small piece with eight dollars in it. Then her Shaqima also costs fifteen dollars a portion, and there are eight dollars in each portion. indivual.
It's bigger than mung bean cake and tastes better than mung bean cake. Liufangzhai's price is high because it has to earn back the money from the store. Many things are sold in the store versus outside. There's a lot of difference here.
Su Wan sells it outside, so he only needs to earn back the money for the raw materials. The current market price of flour is five cents per catty, and fifty catties is two taels of silver and fifty cents. Sugar is in short supply and is expensive, costing twenty cents. One pound last time I bought ten pounds for another twenty taels of silver. Maltose was cheap and didn’t cost much.
Coupled with the oil for frying the noodles, a pot of oil can be reused several times as long as it doesn't get dirty.
According to the calculation of eight pieces of Shaqima per bag, I estimate that fifty pounds of flour can be used to make at least 300 bags, so I’d better consider it less.
If you sell them all, you will get forty-five taels of silver, making a net profit of more than thirty taels.
This is indeed a good deal, with a sure profit and no loss.
At least at the market, she was absolutely confident that she could sell well.
As for going to the village, the sales volume may be smaller. For rural families, buying a snack for fifteen cents still has to be careful.
But in every village, there are always a few wealthy people, right?
After understanding these things, Su Wan gradually fell asleep. When he got up the next morning, he told Su Yun and the others the price.
They did the math themselves and found that the profits were simply too high.
Especially Su Yun, he thought that if this was the case, it would not be long before he could save enough money to open a restaurant.
Opening a restaurant in Qinghe County only costs about one hundred taels at most.
Su Wan had a new way to make money, so the soap business could not be left behind. The brothers and sisters used the remaining soapberries to make fifty pieces of hair soap.
Just these fifty pieces of soap are worth fifteen taels of silver. When it comes to making money, soap is the most profitable, but the demand for daily necessities is not as great as that of food, so it cannot be compared.
Su Wan also agreed to make a new mask for Jiang Yu, but she was in trouble because she couldn't find good fabric.
I was rummaging around at home and found a few pieces of unused black fabric. I thought about stuffing some cotton inside to shape it, and then sewing it on.
Shaqima will be made together in the afternoon. Everyone works together to wrap up Shaqima so that it can be sold early tomorrow morning. Then the troops will be divided into three groups as originally agreed.
But at the same time, the Su family didn't know that a guest was coming to their home.
At the entrance of the village, a carriage suddenly appeared. It was Gu Yue who had returned. This time the battle was not small, with four servants and a personal maid.
When passing by the well in the village, many women were chatting there. The carriage stopped, and the maid next to Gu Yue came over with a few packages of snacks.
Everyone was whispering to each other and discussing in low voices.
"Our young lady invited the villagers to have snacks, including pea yellow from Liufangzhai and sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Our young lady said that she grew up here and remembers our friendship. I hope you will accept it!"
The maid who came to deliver the message held her head high and raised her eyes when she said this. She didn't know she thought she was here to send the beggar away.
Everyone is doing superficial things in front of their faces, knowing that others look down upon them.
"Who is your young lady?" Some people don't understand. Why don't you sign up now?
"Which other family in our village has a rich young lady? The one from the old Su family is now Miss Gu!"
"Oh, you're welcome then. Miss Gu has been watched by us since she grew up. Now she is the richest man's daughter. How can she still remember us?"
The lady who spoke also had a sinister tone.
"Of course I remember, our young lady is not someone who forgets her roots!" the maid replied, still looking arrogant.
Everyone opened the snacks without stuffing them into their own mouths. Most of them wanted to take them home for their children to eat.
After the carriage was far away, everyone couldn't help but complain.
"Bah, who are you looking down on? She's just a maid, isn't she? She's just a lowly girl. We are good people. If we think we are the maid of the richest family and are so arrogant, then isn't this maid in the palace destined to go to heaven?"
"That's right, this Gu Yue keeps saying, remembering us villagers, why doesn't she come out and say it herself? She is still sitting in the carriage and showing off. She does a good job on the surface, but she doesn't look down on us country people in her heart. ?”
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is a good posture. Are you here just to show off your wealth?
If you ask me, her virtues are really not as good as someone else’s biological daughter!”
Everyone saw it with their own eyes. Although Su Wan was a rich young lady before, after she came back, she did all the laundry and cooking, and she did it very quickly.
She can still make money for herself, and she has also done a good job in favor of the village during the days she has been here. All the aunts washing clothes by the river don't like chatting with her.
She also managed to get in and talk to everyone.
Compared with Gu Yue, she used to be pampered at home. Her brothers did all the work at home, so she slept until midnight every day and couldn't cook.
To be honest, country girls just need to be more diligent so that they can find a husband.
No wonder, people are born with wealth and destiny, no matter where they grow up.
When Gu Yue came, Su Wan was sitting in the yard having fun with Su Yun. The brother and sister were talking to each other, discussing whether it would be better to continue cooking the uneaten rooster in soup or fry it in soy sauce.
After Jiang Yu saw the person coming, he returned to the room without saying a word.
Su Wan didn't say anything when he saw him, knowing that he didn't want too many people to see him.
At first glance, he knew that it was Gu Yue who was back, and Su Wan could no longer maintain the smile on his face.
If you don’t like it, you just don’t like it, and there’s no need to pretend to like it. Everyone knows it, and it saves trouble!
Since ancient times, a girl and a girl have been incompatible with each other.
The maid helped Gu Yue down, who was wearing a pink and purple chest-length undershirt. The narcissus embroidery on the dress was gorgeous and the best threads were used.
A begonia on her head swayed gently with her movements. It had been a long time since she came back. Her skin was getting better and became much whiter.
She is also fatter than before, and her face is fleshy. People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. If you dress up carefully and use the rules you have learned during this period, you will no longer be able to hide your temperament.
In addition, she herself is not a low-key person.
As expected of the heroine, she still has a somewhat attractive temperament, Su Wan admitted this generously.
In comparison, she seemed too poor. She was wearing Gu Yue's old clothes, which were dusty, and there was no decoration on her hair. She didn't know how to comb her hair in a bun, so she wore a long braid. .
The identity has been changed, everything has been changed, there is no sense of gap between Su and Wan, everyone has returned to their respective positions, which is good, isn't it?
